scotty nm35 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Cihan is borrowing it, otherwise you guys wouldn't have your cars tuned. You can thank me later. The Innovative is only $200 delivered, no gauge, as the informeter has an analogue input. It can simulate the stock o2 allowing you to stick it in the stock bung, although it should really be a meter or so down the pipe. Cheaper than a replacement stock narrow band o2 sensor too.

pipster11 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 anyone tried the www.14point7.com kits? i'm thinking about maybe the diy kit, $99 for the controller, $50 for the o2 sensor and $10 for wiring (+post) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/348629-what-have-you-done-to-your-stagea-lately/page/56/#findComment-5737402 Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty nm35 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Looks pretty good Tom, seems you can plug 7 analogue inputs into it too.

wolverine Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 It doesn't cost much to get an extra bung welded in pre-cat if you want to run a wideband in addition to your stock O2 sensor. I have additional bungs on both cars.

Sunkist Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 both me and Jethro are running an eManage, it will throw a fault code regardless. neither of us have the o2 plugged in.. its only there for economy at cruise i think... mine was fudged any.. It wont cause a limp or anything.. it will just throw a code and not try to retune timing..

wolverine Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 What's the advantage of running the o2 and the wideband together? If you want to see whether the factory O2 sensor is still working in closed loop. If you have two cars you can buy just one wideband setup rather than one for each car. If you want to tune the car you won't need to remove the factory O2 sensor.

If you want to tune the car you won't need to remove the factory O2 sensor. i think our o2 actually fiddle with timing itself. everytime Cihan tried tuning mine previously with the o2 plugged in, the tune would just go out of whack on the next run. i unplugged it, and it was fine from there on - that being said my o2 was f**ked. but i dont think its necessary if your tuning.

QWK32 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 i need software for the stagea and maybe some for R32 and S14, but the stagea stuff is the most important. there is no vehicle specific software, consult is just the protocol that all nissans between about 1989 - 2002 use. and there is plenty of free software floating around. i've got a few, ECUTalk, Conzult Free, TECU, Nissan Scantech (i think this ones free). If you want to shell out some money you could use Nissan Datascan. even the Nistune software will perform consult operations. If your looking for a good solid little program to check error codes, look at gauge readouts and some data logging than look at ECUTalk. its a great little program, i used to use it all the time before i got my nistune software licence. As far as i know there aren't any free consult programs that can run active tests, i think the free conzult can but its limited.

I have additional bungs on both cars. +1 on this, its exactly what i have done and for a couple of reasons, one so i can remove the wideband and use it on other cars for tuning, and two, you shouldn't be running a wideband where the factory O2 sensor is, it get way too hot for them in that position, a general rule of thumb is about 1meter back from the turbo outlet if you can. also, most wideband units will have a narrowband simulation output that you can use to hook up to your ecu if you don't want to run the stock one.
